In a recent report, it's been noted that India's Fintech industry reached a valuation of US $50 billion in 2021 and is anticipated to soar to US $150 billion by 2025. Among the industry's frontrunners stand Paytm, an Indian e-commerce payment system and financial technology firm headquartered in Noida, Uttar Pradesh.
Founded back in 2010 by Vijay Shekhar Sharma, Paytm initially focused on mobile recharging and bill payments. However, over time, it expanded its services to include a wide array of financial products like bank transfers, credit card payments, and insurance Operating in a country where 95% of monetary transactions were cash-based before demonetization, Paytm faced the challenge of persuading customers to embrace digital payments.
However, recent developments have cast a shadow over Paytm's prospects, ongoing issues with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and its policies have caused a significant dip in Paytm's share price and have affected its technical and fundamental aspects as well. This begs the question: Can Paytm bounce back from these setbacks and reclaim its position amidst the ongoing regulatory challenges posed by the RBI?
